Christian Leaves Birthplace of ECW as Champion!

Night of Champions is not only the night we saw eight WWE Titles defended – but where the ECW Title would change hands for the 13th time in the place where ECW was formed.

Dreamer entered Philadelphia as the Reigning ECW Champion but it would be Christian who would leave with the title. Dreamer’s victory at Extreme Rules was questionable since he never did pin Christian for the title, but instead got the pinfall off of Swagger. The two have not been able to coexist in the ring, from tag team matches to a poorly represented talk show – their differences would have to be settled in a WWE Ring.

It all came into play after Christian won the #1 contendership match against Vladimir Kozlov. Dreamer had wished to face Christian – but those of us wondered, was he afraid of facing the Ruthless Russian? He put the WWE Universe at ease, only for a moment, when he accepted to go one-on-one with Kozlov in a non-title match, of course. But when Kozlov got the better of Dreamer, the WWE Universe wondered whether or not Dreamer should be champion? The two gave it their all, but after a reversal of the Killswitch into the DDT – switch yet again to another Killswitch – the pinfall belonged to Christian.

The title was respectably fought – without any bare turnbuckles or third-party competitor in the match. Congrats to Christian on his 2nd ECW Title Run and for Tommy Dreamer for putting respect into the ECW Title by defending it valiantly in the Birthplace of ECW.

WWETheReturn Prediction for this match: Wrong! Hoped that Dreamer would retain.
